About
YARD ETC. started with two sore hands and a strong and ever smouldering desire for horticulture. Like so many other gardening geeks we like to work with our bare hands. No gloves, with the fingers delving deep into the soil. So much of the sensation is in the fingertips.
A gorgeous sensation that can be wrecked by chapped hands, soil-stained fingernails, cracked cuticles – with scratches, splinters and thorns. One day spent in the spinach patch can easily leave marks. But isn’t growing and cultivating supposed to be good fun and also sensory to work with your hands, even after a shift at the office?
We spotted a need and we felt it was our mission to look for the best possible nurturing ingredients.
Mild, yet effective raw ingredients that cleanse, nourish, moisturise and stimulate. Natural products of course, preferably organic and adding to that, natural essential oils bringing active function and amazing scent experiences. On the Westcoast of Sweden, our experienced craftsmen mix all these lovely things into a beautiful consistency and wrap everything up in stylish and practical packaging.
The brand YARD ETC draws inspiration from the creativity and resourcefulness of the city’s back streets and courtyards. From passionate growers that don’t view asphalt, concrete and exhaust fumes as obstacles, but rather like challenges. People who plant and grow for their own use or simply for the joy and beauty of it. For the sake of flavour, nourishment, beauty and the environment.
All devoted garden enthusiasts that grow food, create beautiful spots or attractive green surroundings to live in and get enjoyment from. In the city or outside. Because there’s of course no real difference between a farmer’s muddy mitt or an accountant’s dry, cracked palm.
The products from YARD ETC fulfil exactly the same needs, never mind if it’s urban or rural environments. Inside or outside any city limits and any country borders.
